I already mentioned, fans need to understand it's not what they think a player is worth or what is fair.

It is about who can pay them, and how much competition there is for that player. The market for free agents is very narrow this offseason. Some bigger names but only a handful of teams that can add them.

I hope Sheed realizes that Lebron won't be there for the 10/11 season. Of course, for an extra $10M the last season of his career he probably won't care.

Exactly.

If this goes through though, it would be hilarious to watch Cavs practices. We all know how much Sheed loves Flopper Bob. Lord knows what he can do to him during scrimmages where there are no refs. It would be Varejao's most banged up season.

He'll probably spend his last season saving the NBA game by teaching that jackass proper methods of defense that don't involve falling down.

Good. Let him destroy their playoff run mid-stream. I can already see him and Brown ( coaches name? ) not getting along.

Actually, I think it would be a good fit seeing as LaBron will carry the team so Sheed will only be expected to chip in the occasional block, rebound, 3, etc.... He won't have to take the responsiblity of leading the team on his own which is something he's never been a fan of anyways. He can underachieve while having the occasional HUGE game (you know....16 pts, 9 boards).

If you read the article it talks about all the issues that would prevent this.

Only way would be a sign/trade. I don't know if it would be possible for a Sheed/Verajio trade or even why the Cavs would do this.

If we could maybe get Verajio and that Polish center ( whatever his name is ) then maybe it could work out. But the Cavs would be left with a very old front line.

Well, this might confirm the skepticism some had when Slam reported that Sheed would demand $8 million next season, because there are obvious factual flaws in this report. Zydrunas Ilgauskas has already confirmed that he will be back in Cleveland next season and will not be opting out of his contract, so that puts the Cavs well over the projected salary cap. Which makes it impossible for Cleveland to sign Wallace for "about $10 million per".
